Comment (by DD32):

 The problem i have with Tarski, is that its not easy for people to tinker
 with its code, Its got a tonne of PHP in there which many would be
 confused about.. I'm wanting a theme with very limited extra PHP, focusing
 on the Core !WordPress and what it can offer, Not what a smart theme
 designer has thought up and decided to include.. Thats what more advanced
 users can do, Not the majority of people who this'd benefit

 My thought of customizable is NOT user-based clicking here, clicking
 there, but rather at modifying the HTML/CSS/PHP, Such a theme that was
 point and click, would be very useless for others to extend off, simply
 because it'd be rather complicated already.

 Simplistic all the way through is what i'm thinking of.. There exist
 enough themes which do lots of things out of the box, Not enough which can
 be used to showcase and base stuff off..
